MINDSET DIFFERENCE REGARDING 75 HARD AND PHASE 1
When I originally began phase 1 of 75 Hard, I was unsure about what to anticipate. I was counting down the days until I reached my ultimate objective of completing the program in the first third of the allotted time, but it was still a distant prospect. This mindset was ineffective for me. Everything was revolutionized on day twenty-four, when I began to shift my perspective and completely embrace the adventure. After that, I began to view it as an opportunity rather than a struggle. As a result, I felt more inspired to complete the program and enhance my confidence.
In the first section of Live Hard, I assumed that there was an 80% chance that I would be able to accomplish this. There was absolutely no doubt in my mind. The objective was not to be attained. The main objective was to sharpen my weapon. to see what I could discover about myself in thirty days. I was able to move more quickly since I felt confident in my activities throughout.
- 10 Minutes of Mental Imagery
I really appreciated the 10 minutes of visualization in the first portion of Live Hard. Because I already adhere to this style of thinking, it was a pleasant addition to my routine. While outdoor exercise, I would picture.
I discovered that my inspiration increased. I created a vision board album on my phone, which I would flick through to get a sense of the projects I’m working on. Thus, I am flooded with the pleasure of generating it.
